Osteoprotegerin as a biomarker of geriatric frailty syndrome

Aging, 2019
The lack of a univocal definition of frailty, a condition frequently found in the elderly population which is correlated with an increased risk of mortality, has prompted the search for clinical and laboratory parameters associated with this condition ...

Adverse Outcome Pathways Applied to Space Radiation Research

Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Long‐duration spaceflight exposes astronauts to various stressors that can alter human physiology, potentially causing immediate and long‐term health effects. These stressors can damage biomolecules, cells, tissues, and organs, leading to adverse outcomes.

Probiotic consumption reduces alveolar bone loss and kidney damage in pregnant rats with experimental periodontitis

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bifidobacterium animalis subsp. lactis HN019 (B. lactis HN019) is a probiotic bacterial strain with immunomodulatory properties. Its benefits have been observed in healthy and systemically compromised animals with periodontitis (PD). Our objective was to investigate the local and systemic effects of the systemic administration of B.

Metformin reverses periodontal destruction caused by experimental periodontitis by inhibiting interleukin‐1β activity

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Periodontitis is a destructive disease that affects periodontal tissue. While current research focuses on disease management, research on tissue repair remains limited. Metformin, a first‐line medication for diabetes treatment, has positive effects on bone health in nondiabetic patients.

The effect of non‐surgical periodontal treatment on Dickkopf‐1 and secreted Frizzled‐Related Protein 5 levels

Journal of Periodontology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Recent advancements in bone tissue biomarker research have identified 2 promising molecules: Dickkopf‐1 and secreted Frizzled‐Related Protein 5. This study aims to evaluate the levels of these biomarkers in gingival crevicular fluid in periodontal health, gingivitis, and periodontitis and to assess the effects of non‐surgical ...

Fabrication of Lithium/Strontium‐Releasing Smart Bioactive Glasses with Anti‐Inflammatory and Osteogenic Effects Tailored to Pathological Stages

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.
Bioactive glasses with controllable dual ion release capability are developed to aid bone regeneration. The bioactive glasses rapidly release lithium ions that exert an anti‐inflammatory effect, suppressing inflammation after bone injury. Simultaneously, the bioactive glasses slowly release strontium ions, which support bone formation by suppressing ...
